My father looked for an airworthy Guiberson for over ten years-one-to
put on a Gullwing Stinson. He could not come up with even one let alone
two. What he heard is that the aircraft versions were bought up for
parts to keep the tank ones running for missionary generators by a
religious outfit, that also established the Crown company in Elkhart,
Indiana. He eventually gave up. And my dad was very determined-he owned
a lot of CCCA classic cars and several warbirds. Like a LOT of
warbirders he died in-a Bonanza.
Somewhere I've a set of manuals and a tool set for a Guiberson and a
few parts. If you bag one and are serious about flying it they are
yours, if I can find them.
